Leg pain during pregnancy

Hey y'all, so I'm 16 weeks pregnant with my second.
I don't think I was in this much pain with my first.

My mid back hurts on my left side, feels like I pulled a muscle. And then I will feel a jab on my left stomach side that makes me gasp.
And now I'm getting that on my right side as well.

But what is REALLY bothering me in pain in my right leg.
Its in my lower leg, shin area.
But it feels like my bone, not muscle.
It hurts to walk on it, so I am forced to limp.
And sometimes when I bend down/squat it feels like its going to snap inwards.

Anyone else have this??
I have a doc appointment on the 24th so I'm going to ask then, but wanted some input.

You can find this in the app by going to the Pregnancy Diary from the home screen and selecting Morning sickness from the Symptoms menu. Then click the menu bar in the upper left and select Symptoms Manual to see your symptoms.
